The slope of the current line is -2/7. To find the slope of the line perpendicular to it, find the negative reciprocal of the slope. So it would be 7/2. The y intercept or the b would remain the same so the equation would be y=7/2x+8. Hope this helps.

Answer:

The slope of this line would be 7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, you need to know that perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes. This means we take the slope of the original line (-2/7) and change the sign to get 2/7. Now we flip the fraction to get 7/2, which would be your new slope.

How do you know if the factors will have negatives or positives in them?
harina [27]

When using factoring by grouping, the replacement terms will both have the same sign of the original middle term. If the last term is negative, then the signs of the factors will have one of each sign with the “stronger” number (the larger absolute value) matching the middle term. hope this helps

What is the data point that is the farthest from other data points when the box plot is NOT symmetrical?
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer: B. Outlier

Step-by-step explanation:

An outlier is an extremely large or extremely small data value in a data set such that it appears far from the other data points when we plot data points on scatter plot or box plot.

Thus, the data point that is the farthest from other data points when the box plot is NOT symmetrical is Outlier.

Its presence affects the value of mean directly. So when a data set have outliers , we prefer Median(Mid value of a data set) as the best measure of central tendency because existence of outliers does not effect Median .

Hence, the correct option is B. Outlier.
